Available in a wide selection of models, Puresound
Custom Snare Wires are specially designed and handcrafted to enhance the
tone, articulation, sensitivity and projection of a full range of custom
and production-line snare drums. Puresound snares are made from
exclusively formulated steel-alloy wires which are coiled and
heat-treated before being uniformly hand-soldered to vintage-style,
polished copper end clips. Finally, to protect them from corrosion
without adversely affecting their sound, Puresound wires are sealed with
a light coat of clear lacquer and individually packaged with both string
and mylar straps for mounting.

Due to these unique designs, materials and
manufacturing methods, Puresound’s classic Custom and Vintage snare
wires are more consistent, more durable and better sounding than
conventional wires – achieving optimum sound and performance in any
musical setting. But, because Puresound is a snare wire specialist,
several series of newly designed, specialized models have also been
created to provide contemporary drummers with a variety of unique tonal
options and performance levels. Puresound Equalizer, Varitone and 221
snare wires alter the number of strands and their position in relation
to the snare bed, the weight of the wire or the type of coil pattern to
allow more extreme levels of tone, spread, clarity, response and range.

Choosing the right set of snare wires has always
been one of the most effective (and least expensive) ways to change the
sound of a snare drum. Now, with the expanded quality and selection of
Puresound Snare Wires, it’s an easy way to improve your drum sound and
performance, too.
